    Had a good day,

    got most of my xmas shopping done! all the kids big pressies - my hamper vouchers came so thought I would get the pressies before I spent them on carp!!

    got our bed stripped and clean bedding now on

    did a bit more pantry clearing which became moving things in other junk cupboard / draw around aswell!

    Anyone know where I can buy that sticky back stuff (don't know tchnical name) to line my pantry shelves? they are a bit manky and made of wood so can't get them any cleaner and want it to look a bit brighter in there?

    toria - you mean Fablon! Or as they always used to say on Blue Peter, 'sticky back plastic'!

    Try B&Q, or Woolworths. I'm sure I've seen it there. Or possibly Staples, as it is often sold to cover school books.

    PS pigpen (and everyone else who manages to do this) how exactly do you manage to get the daily list on your post? I have tried, and always seem to end up with weird spacing!!

    Oh.. I forgot.. I took Moggy to vets. They shaved his neck.. he liked that.. NOT!! He has a skin infection.. she said it looks like a nasty one and we have cream to slap on him twice a day. I also had him chipped while we were there.. he never even flinched he was an absolute star.. after she had done it he snuggled right into me for a hug to make him feel better.. of course I obliged!! though he yowled like a big sissy in the cat box.. he hated it and was going mad!! huge loud yowls and then quiet little kitten-like mewing then big yowls again!!

    I am taking the other mog for chipping when I take the hoppeties for their VHD jabs a week on Monday.

    Off to the pub in a bit with my mother.. need to take her the cat box back and return the money for the vet.. I couldn't find my purse as I was walking out the door so she paid and I promised to take it back later.. I just said 'about tennish' and she said 'ok, whatever'.. pub it is then!!
